It is clear that the Saudi Interior Ministry is
determined to follow the terrorist policy and carries out the arrests without
Justification or reasons violating the Islamic and international laws and
norms.
On 11/12/1999 the members of al-Mabahith al-`Amma in
al-Dammam city broke into the house of the citizen Abdul Ghani al-Hammoud a 38
– year – old, a domestic employee in al-Sammam. The action was carried out in a
barbaric way without Judicial warrant or informing his family the reasons
behind his arrest.
It is worth mentioning that al-Hammuod was detained
previously on 17/06/1997 at his job location in al-Khobar town. His house was
raided and searched thoroughly and his private possessions were confiscated. He has been suffering of
the torture results since his
release last year till his arrest yesterday. Al-Hammoud was rejected to several
kinds of psychological and physical torture inside the Saudi prisons during the
period of the detention.
On one hand, the General Investigations (al-Mabahith
al-`Amma) in Ihsaa has called the supervisors of the so-called (Centers of
Guidance and preachment) and warned them that they should not let the preachers
from outside Ihsaa to preach in their canters. That measure was displayed by
the Regime to force pressure on the religious scholars and the religious
activities that did not follow the Regime’s laws or its religious
establishment which was
established to serve the Regime’s interests and to justify the Regime’s
oppression and persecution against the people of Arabian peninsula.
We raise our appeal for all the Islamic personalities
the Islamic centers, the human rights organizations and the freemen all over
the world to spare no efforts to save the victims of Saudi absolutism.
It is worth to point out that there are hundreds of
scholars and citizens still held in custody for years and their fate is unknown
and the Regime has banned their relatives and families to visit them.
